Terra String Quartet
2024–25 Ernst Stiefel String Quartet-in-Residence
The Terra String Quartet launches its year-long Caramoor residency with three well-loved chamber music masterpieces. A prizewinner at the 2023 Melbourne and Osaka International Chamber Music Competitions, Terra is a vibrant young ensemble committed to infusing the string quartet with equal parts passion, vitality, and humor. Over three concerts throughout the year, Terra shines the spotlight on Benjamin Britten’s three string quartets, which hold a special place in the chamber music repertoire for their innovation, expression, and enduring legacy.
